I'm glad that's over!
If we'd scraped through last night, many thousands of gullible fools like me would have shelled out to attend both legs of the play-off. The agony would simply have been prolonged because we simply aren't good enough. We would have been eliminated in the play-off.
A blind man could see last night that Andy Reid and Robbie Keane were simply not up to the job. This has been evident for some time and the fact that neither of them can get their game at an average mid table club like Spurs says it all. Steven Reid got more crosses in during his brief spell on the pitch than Andy Reid did in the entire game.
Stephen Elliot was more dangerous during his brief spell on the pitch than Robbie Keane was in the entire game.
For all the people who struggled to get tickets last night, you won’t have the same problem for a long time to come. There is very little in that squad to attract the masses.
Farewell Mr. Kerr, you gave it a shot but managing an International team with a limited squad of average players is never easy.
As I've said before, there are only 3 world class players available to Ireland. Only one of them was on the pitch last night.
John O'Shea, do us all a favour and get Alex Ferguson to keep you at Old Trafford for international games in future.
